Has anyone used any of the portable turtables by Numark or Vestax (or any others)? I'm thinking about getting one for when I'm away from college, and for checking out records at record stores that don't have turntables.

From the few pictures I've seen the Handy Trax looks a little nicer

You could always get one of those VW vans that drive around on the vinyl and play it

I can't remember where I saw these, but I would love to have one.

That sounds really cool but at the same time it sounds like it would be terrible for the vinyl itself because youre putting so much force on it to track it and keep it moving inwards.
